- 2. Classification of Nanoparticles zero-dimensional (0-D) one-dimensional (1-D) two-dimensional (2-D)
- 4. One-Dimensional (1-D) Needle-like shape structure Can be broadly divided into 3 category: Nanorods Nanotubes Nanowires Long Gold Nanorods Source: nanoseedz.com
- 5. NANOTUBES Nanotubes are tiny cylindrical structures with nanometer-scale diameters and micrometer-scale lengths. They can be made of various materials, including carbon, boron nitride, and metals. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are the most well- known type of nanotubes, and they are made of rolled-up graphene sheets Carbon nanotubes source ; nanotechz.com
